    I think the Jazz will match and trade Boozer. Portland has a starting PF, what position is Milsap going to play there and get big minutes?
    Portland=fail this offseason.

    they had a writeup on how the GM at Portland is failing miserably this offseason, and asked that very question about where the hell does Milsap fit into the equation, other than a backup

    He's going to command decent money and makes no sense for what is basically a player coming off the bench

    They suggested they go after a small forward instead, and most notably Lamar Odom.

    Milsap wants to be in Utah but that kind of money for him stings. Not sure but there are rumors that if we don't match we may go after Big Baby. And if the Tyrus Thomas for Boozer trade happens we could have the LSU front court back together. But I want Milsap back.

    Aldredge played the 5 a lot of the Houston series.

    He's more than capable, imo.

    He's a traditional 4, but with Yao out for the year and Shaq in the East, who will stop him from being a center in the West?

    off to Dallas he goes -- making them one of the new best in the West.

    If this happens, they could run a scoring lineup of:

    Kidd
    Terry
    Howard
    Odom
    Dirk

    with Marion, Barrea, Dampier off the bench.

    The Lakers would be crazy not to pay Odom. Ron Artest is not the answer.

    the thing is Dallas is not even offering him what the Lakers offered him. One of the Lakers main offer was 3 yrs/27 mil and Odom wants 5 yrs/50 mil which I havent read where a team is willing to give him 10 mil a yr. If Odom would play consistently especially up to his talent maybe more teams would be after him.
